THEY NEVER STRIKE.

There is class Of people in this country
who get up at five o'clock in the morning
and never get back into bed until ten or
eleven O'Clock at night; who work without
ceasing the whole of thai time, and receive
no other cmolument than food and cloth
ing. They understand something of every
branch of economy and labor, from finance
to cooking. Though harrassed by hun
dred responsibilities, though driven and
worried, though reproached and looked
down upon, they never revolt; and they
cannot organize for their protection. Not
even sickness releases them from their
posts. No sacrifice is deemed too great FOR
them to make, and no incompetency in any
branch of their work is excused. No es-
says or books or poems are written in trib-
ute to their steadfastness. They die in the
harness and are supplanted as quickly as
may be. These are the house keeping
wives Of the laboring men.

A CURE FOR GOSSIP.

What is cure for gossip Culture. There
is great deal of gossip that has no malig-
nifty in it. Good natured people talk about
their neighbors because, and only because,
they have nothing else to talk about. As
write, there come to me pictures of different
young ladies. | have seen them at home;
have met them at the library; coming to
and from the bookstore with fresh volume
in their hands They are full of what they
have seen and read. They are brimming
with questions. One topic Of converse
ton is dropped only to give place to another
in which they are interested. They are in
terested in art; love to talk about water
color sketch, or new piece Of music Just
learned.
After delightful hour with such women
one feels stimulated and refreshed, and
during the whole evening or hour, as it
may be, not a neighbours garment was
soled by so much as a touch. They had
something to talk about. They knew some
thing and were anxious TO know more
They had no temptation to gossip, because
the doings of their neighbors formed a sub
iect very much less interesting than those
which grew ont of their knowledge and
their culture There are neighborhoods in
which it RACES Xix an epidemic. Churches
are split in pieces by it; neighbors are
made enemies by it for life. The cure is
not difficult. We have agricultural papers,
religious, scientific, political papers, devot-
ed to every interest great and small. Surely
if reading is cure Certainly help there is
food for all tastes in this direction. With
the mind and brain bankrupt for the want
of something to busy ones self with-a-
bout these spring up the temptation IL gos-
sip; aud there is such thing as it becom-
ing chronic-practieaily incurabe. Let the
young, those just starting in life, beware
of it.-Hrs A. r. Heatoa IN Courier-Joar-
